dtrs5kprs Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 Finally got the first of a few underwater Ned Rig videos uploaded. Hope it clears up some of the questions about why we use the Zman baits, why head shape is important, etc. Other videos will attempt to show the basic retrieves Ned describes in his articles. One thing that should jump out is just how buoyant the Elaztech baits are. Lots of companies describe their plastics as being high floating, but too often they just drag along, or lay over, with a hook in them. It is in HD, so adjust your youtube settings if you have trouble seeing it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ugr5ICOvuE&feature=youtu.be Quillback and InPiney 2

Quillback Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 What no head pounding heavy metal background music like so many bass videos? Thanks for posting that video, very interesting to see the action it has.

motoman Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 Looks like you were burning the midnight oil to post that up Dave; great stuff as always!. Another simple blueprint for success; all yah gotta do is follow it to the letter.:-)
Diamond City Fisher Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 Thanks....Ned Rig works on Bull Shoals too. I need to get the right jig heads....Thanks again.
Members james Posted January 17, 2015 Members Posted January 17, 2015 Very helpful, that bait looked so good, made me want to eat it, thanks for sharing.
LD Fisher Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 Great Job! Thanks for the info and the time to video and post.
dtrs5kprs Posted January 17, 2015 Author Posted January 17, 2015 Thanks all. And yes Doug, I am a little bleary. Takes a long time to load. One thing it shows is what happens when you overwork the bait or try to work it on a tight line. At the start when the bait is just barely inching along I was shaking slack line, albeit too quickly and more aggressively than I would on the water. Later, as the bait got closer to me, it was impossible to keep the slack in the line. The effect is pretty obvious. The bait moves along farther and faster. While the body has great action then, it would be zooming away from any fish near it. Think I have some "deadstick and shake" video which reinforces that idea. When you just shake the slack, it will stand up and rock back and forth (front to back) and more or less remain in place. Inches along at most.
fishinwrench Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 That video, if posted 6 months ago, would have eliminated 5 months and 29 days worth of skepticism. Good stuff !
